Very few cars within 6.0 to 10 lakh Rs include these four features.

During the launch event, the chairperson of the company, MR Mahindra expressed his concern over the rising popularity of ride-sharing apps like Uber. According to Anand Mahindra, auto sales are likely to be affected by such services.
